Tips: Preventing Oral Cancer
A Dental Focus on Cancer Prevention Month |
Although researchers don’t know the exact cause of oral cancer, they do know that smoking, alcohol consumption, and excessive sun exposure can play a role in the development of oral cancer. Avoiding these three things is a great start in preventing oral cancer. Researchers also suggest eating fresh fruits and vegetables may help prevent oral cancer as well. Be sure to check for any abnormalities in or around your mouth or neck, and see your dentist on a routine basis. The earlier oral cancer is detected, the higher the survival rate. Ask your dentist about a thorough oral cancer screening today.
